RIDING THIS TRACK GOT HIM A RED BULL SPONSORSHIP!!

[@sullenpuffin]

Matt, any time you feel like you can’t do it, remember you jumped the river gap. You’re a legend of Hardline now mate.

[@phil_dubss8335]

Bout time we got Jono in one of those helmets

[@alecbalabanis4818]

Naw we need Bernard Kerr in that helmet. Wtf

[@Yngrr024]

I agree Bernard is sm more deserving of a red bull sponsor than Jono

[@BOT_Finn]

@@alecbalabanis4818fr tho

[@ONEF0URW3ST]

I thought it was Jono getting it

[@o.zzzzzz]

Both Jono and BK are too old now. Have a look at Red Bull's riders history. They only award up and coming young riders who are in the beginning of their career, usually early 20's.

[@TorrentUK]

Congratulations Ronan! Well deserved. Now.....what about Bernard!!!!

[@bwele2723]

Exactly what I was thinking. More than deserved!

[@o.zzzzzz]

Bernard Kerr won't be getting one, it's because he is too old now. Red Bull only awards young riders who are in the beginning of their career, usually early 20's.

[@richmondstar4354]

BK is King of Hardline👑…but then if he’s sorted with Leat helmet anyway no need for the helmet😀

[@lprc7196]

He’s turned it down already apparently

[@topspot4834]

@@o.zzzzzzthat's not the reason. Bernard would've had one years ago, but he's under contract with Leatt via Pivot.

All you need in life is Ronnane and Theo. Positive vibes for daaaaays.

6:25 lmao

[@4perta]

Congrats Ronan 🎉

[@Squaremuffin]

The downhill scene is so wholesome + these vlog videos + Brendogs and a couple of others really like, set the scene for the comps in the week leading up. I’m buzzing for Sunday. 🎉

[@IHaveN0Steeze]

Matt’s literally pumping this videos out at a hasty pace. I’m all for it!

[@topspot4834]

His Hardline videos are amazing. I love how he shows his vulnerability and nervousness. I know Lockdown got him more views, but his content this year since Darkfest has been amazing. He doesn't get enough credit for his creativity. The MTB genre on KZbin has pretty much dried up, but Matt continues to consistently make original, top notch content!!

[@HorizonVertigo]

They are pretty great. I've just been watching his plus Syd and Macky.

[@klofrd]

Well done Ronan! The closest I will ever get to a Red Bull helmet is by spilling a can on my lap

[@felixfam0481]

😂 same here dude, same here

[@guillaumesakiche]

Maybe try to spill it on a proper helmet next time. It seems even closer imo.

[@Bottomburbsburnbums]

Haha

[@SuckyMike]

It still counts.

[@Ben-xz9iy]

Ahahahahah

[@spent808]

9:43 that jump cut though

[@ewan_young]

you know he crashes after 😂

[@spent808]

@@ewan_young Yup that cut was half a second too late 🤣

That was a jumpscare for me 😂

[@masongorski7845]

thats probably what gave him another problem with his wheel, gotta cover it up because of sponsorships

[@olrenison]

'Just watch with your eyes' 😂😂😂 Absolutely stoked for Ronan. 🙂👏👏👏

[@LaurentiusTriarius]

2:22 proof that Bernard is a humanoid robot 😂 Very well deserved for Ronan, real G

[@stujm8376]

So well deserved, well done Roman. He’s one of the best young riders on the circuit and is always a pleasure to watch. I’m not ashamed to admit it brought a lump to my throat when you announced it, even though I’d guessed it was going to be Roman. We’ll done Matt too for getting stuck in at hardline, watching you and Jono together is always a pleasure.

[@DirtNastyy]

Met Ronan last weekend at Killington when we were both scoping out a section of the track. Such a nice dude, unfortunately he flipped and landed on his hand a few seconds after he took off. Glad to see he ended up placing in the top 10 and seeing this dude absolutely slay hardline with a fresh new helmet.

[@darrenjames5795]

Best of luck Mat, will be rooting for you. What a nice moment to be able to give Roland his Red ball helmet. Your smashing m8

[@Kradlum]

Love the way you guys support each other. Hoping it's dry and windless for race day!

[@rozi5129]

"watch me write this thing off..." best reaction ever

[@RAVS_73]

Ronan deserves that for his Bryceland impression alone

[@blank-dr2kx]

I used own a Mr josh Bryceland bike. An Orange Msisle bought from the man himself. Of course back then I didn’t know the beast he would become 😊

[@didtomuch2649]

Fair play to you dude as you said yourself, Godziak and Genon are slopestyle athletes so big ups for accepting this challenge again!!!!

[@Itsssciara]

Love how after you fell off you tried again instead of giving up!!

[@CarnalCarnival]

Ronan the Barbarian! Let's go lads, looking forward to race day, safe travels lol!

[@reusserfarm1]

Matt, I Love all the updates of your rides and adventures. Wishing you all the best for a SAFE and FAST ride ALL the way to the finish at the RedBull arch. 😃

[@dustinschwing3875]

stoked for Ronan. nice content, but for me Bernard killed the take by clipping out and in just before that gnarly drop: D Kudos good race guys!!

[@jeffminnich3291]

I love your realistic view of them muddy rocks and features, I'm sure some of the other guys/gals are thinking the same thing. Keep working it!

[@geoffdrury9921]

Excellent video Matt. Cool to see you looking out for Jono and Ronan’s helmet presentation the icing on the cake.

[@VixHD]

Wicked mate love to see new top level talent getting recognised

[@8BitZ0mbie]

What a huge moment. Respect

[@paulbainbridge6425]

Love all this !! Great to see so many competitors enjoying each other’s company and encouraging each other !! Genuine fella Matt 👍🏻

[@roymurray8782]

Great vid capped with the new RedBull athlete. Ronan literal drinks more RB than anyone.

[@RagingGamingBear]

Can confirm. Just got back from Wales, literally like 15 mins from this area. Slightest bit of wetness on your boots when hiking and the mud and rocks become like ice. :D

[@chrisfoz1948]

Love the chorus of YEAH BOOOY for Ronan.

[@tetchypoo]

Man, I still don’t know how I landed on you or this hardline stuff, but I’m just loving your energy, talent, and commitment to your community. Honestly lovely stuff, easiest sub for me ever. Just seeing how much you were stoked to bring Ronan onto the team is making me feel feels.

[@stephankoehler800]

Yay Ronan!!! So proud. Well deserved. You rock. ❤🎉🔥🔥🔥

[@Onceayoungidiot]

Yup. Great vid as ever, Matt. Absolutely agree that Ronan deserves his RB lid: he’s been a legend this last year. 🎉

[@Overlycomplicatedswede]

MASSIVE for that man, incredibly talented athlete and very well earned

[@ogshermac]

class act matt, got in said some good words, gave him his helmet and then stepped out to let him have his moment and photos 10/10

[@fabricationnation8052]

Don't get discouraged buddy....try to block out the crazy, and remember, you're still just riding you're bike, and you're one of the best....everyone says it, and it sounds cheesy, but just remember to have fun....and all the crazy will go out the window....you're killing it dude

[@iffy_too4289]

I was wondering yesterday if Ronan was going to get a Redbull sponsorship. Fair play lad, well deserved.

[@FireLysm]

Commenting this based on the title before watching the video, no one deserves it more than Bernard Kerr. NO ONE.

[@loki5481]

w ronan deserve it so much

[@HoopleHeadUSA]

11:01 Jono getting his RB helmet! What a moment. Truly the make of the elite!

[@bhew7409]

Ronan is clearly a top lad, buzzing for him!

[@koosb8162]

Half DH, half Rampage, half gravity assisted trials, bro!

[@niczoom]

Love your videos Matt. That track looks like a muddy nightmare.

[@ReturnOfDeeO]

Incredible riding, but damn the end gave me chills. Love seeing stuff like that. OH and also telling Jono not to film and watch with his eyes. Good brother/person you are.

[@mariarutledge7109]

love your stuff man, keep up the great work

[@misterdroneboy8999]

So sick what an honour and moment!

[@harrycollins9496]

Love watching the vidoes matt

[@mproudman8299]

Jono's teammate Remy could help you with those tech/jank puzzles your struggling with. Two weeks in Squamish with him to tightnen those up. Combined with your big air skills you'd be a force Matt!

Let's go Ronan very much deserved!!

Yes Ronan well deserved that helmet and sponsorship

hey matt quick question, i've been thinkig about getting a jump bike for a while now but i am not sure what to get as i dont want to spend too much on one. What would you recommend? btw best of luck for hardline on Sunday, i've got a maths GCSE the day after so probably won't be able to watch it, but am rooting for you and kerr

Well deserved and nice that Matt had the honor of giving it to him. Some kids dream of playing short stop for the Yankees, or winning at Augusta. For a lot of us though, that Red Bull helmet is something we've thought about since we started riding as kids. I'll never get one, but seeing Ronan get his is just as good!

[@Desmond17]

Yes Ronan ! Well earned mate 🤘

[@my2017raptorhardtail]

Hell yes!!! Very well deserved!

Is the jumper you are wearing at 7:38 going to be on the shop anytime soon or am I late to the party?

All the redbulls the man drinks he sure deserves this!

So sick! Now get Stark on the team lol.

[@totojejedinecnynick]

So Matt jumps the moster canyon/ravine/river gap that got cancelled afterwards for being too deadly - and at the same time gets defeated by a scary slick rock in bottom woods. Doesn't compute xD

[@stirfrybry1]

You went deep on that road gap but landed so smoothly and railed the turn. I wonder if you could bunny hop a couple bike lengths before the take off so you start dropping earlier than if you rode off the end.

[@Luap-ls3ix]

Yes Ronan!! LFG!!
